The aim was to report the first case of cancer‑associated retinopathy (CAR) presenting before bladder cancer diagnosis. A 71‑year‑old woman with a history of bilateral vision loss underwent subsequent complete ophthalmic examination include a fluorescein angiography, full‑field electroretinogram (ERG), serology including serum antibodies for CAR, and positron emission tomography‑computed tomography (PET‑CT) scan. The patient was diagnosed with Cite this article as: Nivean M, Muttuvelu DV, Afzelius P, Berman DC. Paraneoplastic retinopathy associated with occult bladder cancer.

Timely recognition of this entity may be crucial for an increased patient survival thus adult onset progressive photoreceptor dysfunction, confirmed by ERG, should alert to a possible remote effect of known or occult malignancy. In the latter, PET‑CT may be exploited as a powerful diagnostic tool.
